3. Get the students to discuss their career plan in pairs.
The sample answer
A: To learn about your career plans, perhaps you can tell me more about your interests.
B: Sure. From a young age, I’ve loved animals and I’d often ask my parents to take me to nature parks and zoos.
A: Interesting! Can you give me an example about the kind of career you would like and why it would be a good fit for you
B: Of course! When I was little, I decided that I wanted to be a vet, and that’s still my goal. It’s a good fit because I’m comfortable holding, feeding and caring for animals.
A: Lovely. Have you found ways to learn more about this career For example, what education and skills are needed
B: Generally, most vets have a bachelor’s degree in veterinary science. Hands-on experience is equally important, for example, working at a veterinary clinic.
A: I can see you’ve done your research. Would you mind telling me what steps you can take to achieve your goals
B: I have a step-by-step plan that includes successfully completing a bachelor’s degree in veterinary science, which takes four to five years.
A: However, to get into university, preparation will start in high school. Isn’t an outstanding academic performance essential
B: Yes. I must get excellent grades in all my subjects. Besides, I want to do volunteer work at my local animal clinic in my spare time, so I can observe qualified vets at work and gain experience.
A: I imagine that kind of experience will help you in your studies.
B: Exactly! For now, I’m going to ask my parents if I can get a cat. This will teach me responsibility and basic animal care.
A: It’s clear that you know what you need to do to achieve your goal. I wish you the best of luck!

Step 2 Writing career plan DP38
1. Learn about writing techniques
T: Use your ideas from part C and the information in parts A and B to help you.
Learning about the structure
To write a career plan, you can follow the structure below:
Express your idea about your career goal.
Explain your step-by-step plan. Identify the barriers that you might face and state how you can overcome them.
Conclude with your hopes for the future.
Learning about the language
Your plan should be easy for you to understand and follow. You can use expressions like to start with, then, next, last but not least. Pay attention to the tense and remember to be objective and positive.
2. Work out the outline
Title My career plan
Ambition To be a vet
How-to Pursue a degree in veterinary science at university Prepare myself in high school Do volunteer work at a veterinary clinic Have a pet of my own
3. Finish off the writing
Sample answer:
My career plan
From a very young age, I have loved animals. I would ask my parents to take me to nature parks and zoos. I wanted to be one of the staff holding, feeding and caring for the animals! I decided that I wanted to be a vet one day and that is my goal still.
To make my childhood dream come true, I found out that I should pursue a degree in veterinary science at university. After four to five years of successful study, I would be awarded a bachelor’s degree in veterinary science. However, entry into these colleges can be highly competitive. I will need to prepare myself in high school and work hard to produce an outstanding academic performance.
Other than following the right course of study, I can do volunteer work at a veterinary clinic in my spare time. Working at the clinic will give me time to observe qualified vets at work and find out the answers to the many questions I will be faced with. The shelter will also provide me with many practical skills, which I could use to get through my theoretical studies and pass all my courses successfully.
For now, I am going to ask my parents if I can keep a cat. Having a pet of my own will teach me responsibility and basic animal care. In the future, when working as a vet, I will probably take care of animals of different species. It will be challenging but rewarding at the same time.
